Pokemon

Eh, it's not really that big of a difference really. There's literally only the megalutions and the three legendaries that can't be traded or battled with. Everything else is perfectly legal.

That's literally less than 1% of all the pokemon data. I don't think it's much of an issue.

I don't care if it's less than 1%, it's still a pretty fucking big issue. If I use a certain mevo or move on my team then I can't play with other people that want to use x/y? And I'm practically forced to battle online using ORAS when I would rather use the one with customizable trainers? There were so many ways to work with this but they just went with the bullshit force you to get ORAS if you want to battle online approach.
Here's betting that they're going to make a z version with the oras mevos included and that's why they're doing this.

But... if then make Z... the same will be happen... The new megas cannot be used in XYORAS too... So another "Torneament Roon" needs to be opened, more restriction needs to be maked in the bank and so on...

But... i see some reason: Because the bank, is too easy pass all your pokémons back to te bank, pass some mega stones to another game and start over... allowing you get more and more Megastones. With a compability, a X/Y gamer can get all the ORAS news without owning a copy of any ORAS. But not without some trouble/work...

Unless they see the backlash from this one and realize that they shouldn't put in stuff that won't be compatible. It's literally a marketing stunt telling people that they need ORAS and since when has that NOT been the case with this type of thing? I don't know why this affects people so deeply anymore, I thought they'd be desensitized to being screwed over into buying a new game/console.
 
Soo, I found this one. Wish I found it during the Pidgeot and Beedrill Mega announchment :/

it's cuz all the professors in the Canopy Kingdom were drawn and quartered so that the Princess could ride her bike unhindered
parasoul is a tyrant, to be sure
 
I'm just glad we're allowed to run inside buildings now.

I'm pretty sure the professors were all killed on Valentine's Day.
 
Has that demo released yet?
For me it has. Not that much in it, exept you can transfer Glalie with a mega stone when you have the full game (and other lesser rewards, but only once a day).

Also, seeing you and Steven fly on Latias/Latios together (not mega) is the most retarded thing I have seen in this francise!

Guess I got a reason to get the demo now
 
So, I've been working on a team to transfer over to ORAS when it comes out and so have been testing strategies on Showdown. My team is forced to be in the OU tier simply because of my Skarmory and Azumarill. The others are UU or RU. Anyways, got this replay of a battle that, I think, was absolutely perfect. The guy even rage quitted. Here's the replay if it works.

I never knew Tentacruel could learn Haze. That's a pretty nice way to surprise people and prevent them from setting up in your face.
 
I got a code in the morning, but cannot load now... :(

EDIT: And maybe cannot load ever, because im a Brazilian....................................

Profund Sadness....

NEW EDIT: Another good advantage to have two DS... I make one be an North American one, and install the demo in this one... and the console dont have problem with games... i can use an ORAS to get the bonus itens and after play normally in my "brazillian" DS...

He's been able to learn it as an egg move since Generation 2 haha. Same with Rapid spin. What's makes this version of Tentacruel unique, is his ability to have both simultaneously, shutting down both set ups and entry hazards. This is the first generation that both moves could be on the same moveset thanks to Gen 6 allowing the mother's moves passed down to the child. And now it's super awesome.
 
I'm making an ORAS team and i'm naming all my mons after rappers and hiphop artists
I swear to god this wasn't because of SBF's nuzlocke

so far I got
Snoopzilla the Sceptile (Grass/Dragon, yo)
Wiz Khalifa the Beedrill (Black and Yellow, after all. I'm saving Wu-Tang Clan in the event of a Vespiqueen)
and Lil Jon the Galvantula (Both are small, energetic, and lovable)
considering getting a Wailord and naming it NotoriousBIG but that's tentative at the moment

come with suggestions, friends

Not a hip hop, guy, sorry. :P

(P.S. What was with that freaky voodoo magic, where I responded to your post and it somehow wound up in the Platinum Games thread? Dang, forums, get it together!)
 
it's called "not looking at the thread title and just seeing 'P' then assuming that's the pokemon thread because i can't fucking read"
 
Yeah, I came to realize that after a little bit.

Busta Rhymes the Diggersby, DMX the Arcanine, and Dr. Dre the Pangoro paired with Eminem the Krokorok
 
I dont know enough of Hoenn PKMN to help with ORAS, but I have Eminem the Vanilluxe <M&M's are a popular ice cream topping> and Jay-Z the Swellow

if I ever ever have a Diggersby, the only and ONLY name I'll ever use for it is gonna be Ol' Dirty
 
Why an Arcanine for DMX you ask?
"Its magnificent bark conveys a sense of majesty.
Anyone hearing it can't help but grovel before it."

EDIT: Actually Houndour/Houndoom would be better.

I woulda suggested Biggie Smalls (BigESmalls), but that works too. :)

EDIT:
who would be a fitting pokemon for Bless?
 
Actually name the Arcanine after Asheru.
Arcanine is the best, Asheru is the best, it fits.
 
It would be fucking stupid not to give Vanilla Ice to a Vanilluxe.
 
yeah, but that's way too obvious.

I say take advantage of a good reference.

EDIT: Vanilluxe can have Bless.
 
Too obvious? Since when is that an issue? That's just stupid.
Whatever, I really don't care anyway.

Oh, Snoop Lion the Pyroar.

If you already didn't think Team Magma sucked, they say shit like this.

it's bullys vs nerds
just like we were saying it was since they got revealed
 
Seems silly, but the personalities of the teams were the sole reason between getting OR or AS. I didn't want to be fighting and talking to a bunch of sniveling nerds all game and instead thought pirates were cooler so I chose AS.

Literally the only reason.
 
Which is a big reason for why I hate that they're taking out character customization.
By the way has that been confirmed? Ktulu didn't seem so sure of it before.
